Benjamin Bischoff on test automation and software craftsmanship

I am a test automation engineer at trivago N.V. (ex Senior Automation Engineer at Ubisoft Düsseldorf) writing and talking about software development and testing.

Check out my book "Writing API Tests with Karate"!

Laxersaz, the hobby game development duo I am a part of, took part in our third game jam. Our entry is called "Love & Cheese" for the Brackeys Game Jam 2022.2.

The recording of my live coding YouTube stream "API Testing mit Karate (API testing with Karate)" is now available (German only)! This was a 75 minute event in collaboration with Never Code Alone.

The recording of my talk "Of plugins & decorators - trivago's e2e test framework in the spotlight" is now available! This is based partly on this blog post highlighting the framework's plugin infrastructure.

The recording of my talk "Smoke Tests and Mirrors - the Magic in Test Automation" is now available! This is based on a series of blog posts connecting magic and software principles.

The recording of my talk "The Road to QA - an okayish success story" for Continuous Testing Meetup Berlin is now available! This is based partly on this blog post highlighting why I switched from 100% development towards QA.

I visited the Romanian Testing Conference (RTC) 2022 in Cluj-Napoca, Romania and presented my talk "Smoke Tests and Mirrors - the Magic in Test Automation" there. This is my review of the conference, taking place 16th-17th of June.
